Why You’ll Love It
Handcrafted by Catherine Muniere of France, this dollhouse doll excited little girl is especially desirable because she represents one of the artist's older children, a subject she has created far less frequently than her beloved toddlers. Beautifully hand-sculpted and painted in clay, she wears a sweet grey-and-white striped knit sweater, sunny yellow corduroy skirt, moss colored knit tights, and soft darker green shoes. She has rosy cheeks, side-glancing eyes, and a broad toothy smile. Her auburn colored hair is styled in two braided buns paired with a pretty headband. Nestled securely in her arms is an instantly recognizable hand-knit Lamb Chop toy, created by miniature artist Helen Palenski. The doll's arms and legs are moveable.
She would be so cute displayed on the edge of a bed, seated in a nursery chair, searching through a toy chest, playing with other children or a reading nook.
